Right? Even if he was correct, no one can possibly trust him when we have already seen how they treat workers of ride sharing, work from home, grocery pick-up, website pricing and “convenience” fees. Bad for the workers bad for the consumer.

This time though will be different /s

    I think it helps you can see people you agree or disagree with in a bunch of comments, you can almost get a feel for who is courteous and who is just angry.

    Reddit has always been more of a anonymous feeling website for me.

    The amount of internet “needed” these days is staggering, to have that attached to a comment you made 20 years ago drunk online is terrifying.

    Bank accounts, trading platforms, medical insurance, rent payments, car insurance, locks, restaurants, job applications, grocery shopping, gas stations everything is online and requires registration now.

    The way I heard it, great potato famine wasn’t as big a deal as the extreme exploitation, colonization, and failure of industrialization as well as landlords and religious apartheid that began earlier.

    Which very much surprised me.

    I know there is a bikeability and walkability score online, but when I move to those places I find mostly recreational biking paths and unprotected bicycle lanes doing most of the heavy lifting, they don’t have very many bike lanes that actually go anywhere like businesses, public transportation, hospitals, gyms, or entertainment facilities.

    Is there a metric for that or a website that tracks actual usability of bike and walk routes and maybe even their safety features?
